I once knew some guys that would literally unplug and carry their desktop equipment to wherever they wanted to go that day, then set it all up before taking it back home. True PC gamer overlordz. |
We did that often in the 1990s and early 2000s.
Every 14 days me and my friends unplugged our PC hardware at home, carried the heavy big tower PCs plus heavy 17'' - 21'' CRT monitors plus boxes with lots of PC periphals into our cars, drove them to city hall, carried all the stuff in the hall of our "computer club", set up our PCs and a BNC network. A few hours later all the stuff had to be carried back and set up at home.
Within these 14 days, we often carried our PC stuff one or two times to my friend's big house where we could set up our PCs and a BNC network to play LAN games like Doom 1 + 2, Duke 3D, Quake 1 - 3, Unreal, Forsaken, Diablo 1 + 2, Command & Conquer 1 & 2, Dune 2, Warcraft 1 - 3.
Awesome times!
